1 Abhakorintho 8
1 Woli ingulu ye bhilyo bhinu bhisosibhwe bhiyanwa ku masusano: echimenya ati “Eswe bhona chili no bhwenge.” Obhwenge obhuleta echigundu, tali elyenda elyumbaka.
Περὶ δὲ τῶν εἰδωλοθύτων, οἴδαμεν ὅτι πάντες γνῶσιν ἔχομεν.
2 Ikabhati omunu wona wona ketogelati kamenya omusango mulebhe, omunu oyo atakumenya kutyo jimwiile okumenya.
ἡ γνῶσις φυσιοῖ, ἡ δὲ ἀγάπη οἰκοδομεῖ. εἰ δέ τις δοκεῖ εἰδέναι τι, οὐδέπω οὐδὲν ἔγνωκε καθὼς δεῖ γνῶναι·
3 Nawe umwi wemwe akamwenda Nyamuanga, omunu oyo kamenyekana nage.
εἰ δέ τις ἀγαπᾷ τὸν Θεόν, οὗτος ἔγνωσται ὑπ᾽ αὐτοῦ.
4 Mbe ingulu yo kulya bhilyo bhinu bhisosibhwe bhiyanwa ku masusano: echimenya ati “amasusano bhitali bhinu kuchalo anu,” na ati atalio Nyamuanga undi ila ni umwila.”
Περὶ τῆς βρώσεως οὖν τῶν εἰδωλοθύτων οἴδαμεν ὅτι οὐδὲν εἴδωλον ἐν κόσμῳ, καὶ ὅτι οὐδεὶς Θεὸς ἕτερος εἰ μὴ εἷς.
5 Kulwokubha bhalio bhamfu bhanu abhabhilikilwa bha mungu yakabhee nolo mulwile nolo munsi, lwakutyo bhali “bhamungu na bhakulu bhamfu.”
καὶ γὰρ εἴπερ εἰσὶ λεγόμενοι θεοὶ εἴτε ἐν οὐρανῷ εἴτε ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ὥσπερ εἰσὶ θεοὶ πολλοὶ καὶ κύριοι πολλοί,
6 “Nawe kwiswe chili na Nyamuanga umwila unu ali Lata, ebhinu bhyona bhisokele kumwene, neswe chikae kumwene, na Latabhugenyi umwi Yesu Kristo, unu kumwene ebhinu bhyona bhyabheewo, na kumwene eswe chilio.”
ἀλλ᾽ ἡμῖν εἷς Θεὸς ὁ πατήρ, ἐξ οὗ τὰ πάντα καὶ ἡμεῖς εἰς αὐτόν, καὶ εἷς Κύριος Ἰησοῦς Χριστός, δι᾽ οὗ τὰ πάντα καὶ ἡμεῖς δι᾽ αὐτοῦ.
7 Nolo kutyo, obhumenyi bhunu bhutali munda ya bhuli munu. nawe, abhandi abhasangila okutambila ebhisusano munsiku jainyuma, nolo woli abhalya ebhilyo kuti bhisosibhwe bhiyanwa kumasusano. Emitima jebhwe jijigilwe kwokubha nimilenga.
Ἀλλ᾽ οὐκ ἐν πᾶσιν ἡ γνῶσις· τινὲς δὲ τῇ συνειδήσει τοῦ εἰδώλου ἕως ἄρτι ὡς εἰδωλόθυτον ἐσθίουσι, καὶ ἡ συνείδησις αὐτῶν ἀσθενὴς οὖσα μολύνεται.
8 Nawe ebhilyo bhitachikomesha eswe ku Nyamuanga. Eswe chitali bhabhibhi muno chikalema okulya, nolo bhakisi muno chikalya.
βρῶμα δὲ ἡμᾶς οὐ παρίστησι τῷ Θεῷ· οὔτε γὰρ ἐὰν φάγωμεν περισσεύομεν, οὔτε ἐὰν μὴ φάγωμεν ὑστερούμεθα.
9 Nawe mubhe nobhwitegelesha ati obhwiyaganyulo bhwemwe bhutaja kubha chikujulo kuunu ali mulenga mulikisha.
βλέπετε δὲ μήπως ἡ ἐξουσία ὑμῶν αὕτη πρόσκομμα γένηται τοῖς ἀσθενοῦσιν.
10 Ebu iganilishati omunu akulola, awe unu uli no bhwenge, nulya ebhilyo mwi yekalu lya masusano. Omutima gwo munu oyo gutakulamula ona alye ebhinu bhinu bhisosibhwe bhiyanwa bhya masusano?
ἐὰν γάρ τις ἴδῃ σε, τὸν ἔχοντα γνῶσιν, ἐν εἰδωλείῳ κατακείμενον, οὐχὶ ἡ συνείδησις αὐτοῦ ἀσθενοῦς ὄντος οἰκοδομηθήσεται εἰς τὸ τὰ εἰδωλόθυτα ἐσθίειν;
11 Kulwejo ingulu yo bhumenyi bhwao bhwe chimali ingulu yo bhwambilo bhwe bhisusano, mulawasu na muyala wanyu unu ali mulenga, unu ona Kristo afuye ingulu yae, kasimagisibhwa.
καὶ ἀπολεῖται ὁ ἀσθενῶν ἀδελφὸς ἐπὶ τῇ σῇ γνώσει, δι᾽ ὃν Χριστὸς ἀπέθανεν.
12 Kulwejo, ukamenya ebhibhibhi ingulu yo mumula wanyu na bhayala bhanyu no kujijimya emitima jebhwe jinu jili milenga, omukola ebhibhibhi ingulu ya Kristo.
οὕτω δὲ ἁμαρτάνοντες εἰς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς καὶ τύπτοντες αὐτῶν τὴν συνείδησιν ἀσθενοῦσαν εἰς Χριστὸν ἁμαρτάνετε.
